Have. Want. Need.
We've been seeing colored stems for a while now. But it's an opportune time for a refresher. Geri Halliwell, here at her book signing in the UK, shows us how to pull it off successfully. The key is to keep the rest of your outfit monochrome, preferably dark. That way your legs aren't upstaged — and you don't look like Punky Brewster.

Based off of the show What NOT To Wear, I'm deeming this edition of How Would YOU Wear It? "How NOT To Wear Colored Tights." I'm all for colorful tights but Paris killed her beautiful Nanette Lepore dress by pairing it with tacky pink tights. Was she trying to match with the pink carpet? If I were Paris and standing next to my stylish sister (love the plaid and Chanel shoes, Nicky!), I would Read more

Fab reader Brunetteblogging dressed up a denim button-up with cool-girl accessories and a dash of neon. First, she paired the casual topper with a mauve skirt, then added a wide-brimmed hat, white handbag, textured tights, and black suede booties into the mix. While these pieces amp up the chic factor on an everyday denim essential, we love that she polished the outfit off on a totally colorful Read more
Madewell launched a massive road trip yesterday, using a vintage Airstream as a kind of nomadic pop-up shop to bring its awesome (we can personally vouch for this) denim to cities and college campuses from Boston to Seattle. We stopped by the Airstream yesterday morning to share coffee, donuts, and Spring shopping tips with Kin Ying Lee, the ever hospitable and eternally cool creative director of Read more
